专辑简介
"Preludes to Passion:" is an invitation to beautiful and intimate piano works. Each composition--though brief and evanescent--resonates with emotion, enveloping the listener.
Several works are vocal in origin and evolved into stunning keyboard works. Bartok's "Wedding Song" was composed for mixed chorus and accompaniment. The choral parts "sing" beautifully from the piano and joined with the original accompaniment, transform the song into a dramatic two-piano expression of love and regret. Hindemith's "The Swan," written for four-part a cappella chorus is passionately re-expressed at the keyboard, with Rilke's poem recited alongside. And, the heartbeat and emotion of Sting's "The Secret Marriage" joined with cello, touches the listener.
"Preludes to Passion" beckons the listener to experience timeless, passionate gestures from the intimate realm of the keyboard.
